I think I'll take a 'tech' vacation: one week, completely offline.

And then suddenly I changed thoughts.  And then immediately I started thinking about the fact that I had changed thoughts.

The 'talking' part of my brain is apparently not well connected to the 'sounding cool' part of it.

If conversation were a sport, she would be a Special Olympian.

Being nice to someone and getting them to like you are not the same thing.  Not even close.

"Hey, you got any free time today?"

"No, sorry, I've got a lot of work to do organizing my to-do list and calendar!"

Sir, I understand you already spoke with 9 other doctors, but I'm sorry, I'm going to have to agree with them...
